Working across the UK

Channel 4 works to support regional production partners, helping to grow the independent production industry across the UK's Nations and Regions.

Our strategy for building a sustainable sector throughout the UK focuses on facilitating contact between indies and commissioners, seed-funding via our Alpha Fund, investment in talent and skills development, and so growing hubs of creative excellence.

In the last ten years, Channel 4 has invested over £1 billion in content from the Nations and Regions. In 2016, we spent £169 million on production from the Nations and Regions.
